AMADEUS: Mobile, Autonomous Decentralized Utility System for Indoor Transportation

چکیده
The authors have developed a mobile, autonomous decentralized utility system for indoor transportation, called AMADEUS. This paper explains how we put it to practical use. AkL4DEUS is a system designed around transportation agents. We eliminated centrally managed vehicle allocation and routing plans by implementing autonomous vehicle allocation negotiations and collision avoidance between agents. The transportation agent k collision avoidance function enables the hi-directional movement of vehicles on a single-track, thereb.v making efficient, space-saving transportation possible. This paper introduces the concept of AMDEUS and describes the transportation agent architecture by focusing on installing the collision avoidance function.

Decentralized Kinematic Framework for Payload Transportation by a System of Mobile Manipulators
In this paper, we examine the development of a decentralized control framework for a modular system of wheeled mobile manipulators that can team up to cooperatively transport a large common object. Each individually autonomous mobile manipulator consists of a differentially-driven wheeled mobile robot (WMR) with a passive, two-degree-of-freedom, planar, revolute-jointed arm mounted in the plane...
متن کاملAn Autonomous Robot Prototype using Concept Learning Model
I. INTRODUCTION Mobile robots could be studied in an outdoor or indoor environment. This paper is focused on the processing of main indoor movement parameters (wheel speed, world map characteristics, delays, etc.) in order to use them in a newer approach based on concept learning. The main goal is to describe a proposal of a feedback system able to advise a short loop robot controller. FIC prot...

متن کاملSensor Fusion for Localizing a Mobile Robot Outside of Buildings
In this paper we show that it is possible to extend a mobile indoor service robot, making it capable of performing autonomous transportation tasks in outdoor environments. While the higher-level software (like planners, schedulers and collision avoidance) is no di erent than that used in indoor vehicles and therefore both well known and reliable, the sensor fusion layer is the challenging part ...

Omni directional mobile robots have been popularly employed in several applications especially in soccer player robots considered in Robocup competitions. However, Omni directional navigation system, Omni-vision system and solenoid kicking mechanism in such mobile robots have not ever been combined. This situation brings the idea of a robot with no head direction into existence, a comprehensi...
